A Chechen man with ties to Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was shot and killed by an FBI agent in Orlando early today when the man attacked the agent, the FBI said in a statement.

The FBI identified the person shot and killed as Ibragim Todashev, 26.

According to the FBI and local news accounts, the shooting took place in an apartment building on Peregrine Avenue while Todashev was being questioned about the bombings and Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

Hot Air has a roundup, including some interesting news about Todashev: he allegedly was involved in a previous triple murder that Tsarnaev MAY have been involved in, AND Todashev was supposedly linked with Chechen separatists. …How absolutely shocking, really.
